Here's another delicious (and super easy) family recipe. I think I've been making this since I learned how to use the stove!
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove diced
1/2 onion chopped
1 tomato chopped
1 large can kidney beans (26 oz)
1 can tomato sauce (15 oz)
1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Handful chopped cilantro
Heat oil in large sauce pan. Brown onion, add garlic, tomato, and all the spice. Stir until softened. Add kidney beans, tomato sauce, and water. Finally add chopped cilantro. Simmer on low for 2-4 hours stirring occasionally. Add salt if needed (it usually doesn't need salt unless you specifically get 'no salt added' tomato sauce.) Serve over rice.
